The sewn loops look nice and convenient, but anyone see any real advantage of this over using overhands with decent tails in nylon webbing? There's a significant price difference between this and 12 feet of webbing.

The sewn loops on the ends allow to create a multiple point anchor while allowing the weight distribution to adjust. Beyond this webbing tends to be more versatile and cheaper.

I believe the only advantage is less bulk with sewn slings. It you don't mind the bulk of knots then just buy some webbing and save your money for some new carabiners or draws.
